Current online presence

Prompt: What is my current on-line presence?

My online presence is currently in decline by choice, in contrast to most others who are actively adding to theirs. I was very active online in the early days of social media (i.e. friendster and Myspace), but I have become more private/introverted and less interested in exposing parts of my life to the public as I've gotten older. Currently I have two social media accounts, the first is my original Myspace page, which has not been accessed in ~5 years; the second is my DeviantArt page, an online gallery of my paintings under a  handle of my choosing, I'm merely an anonymous artist. I know that this may be hard for others to understand, after all, during the last decade we've witnessed a mass migration of people to online spaces and it is fast becoming less common to not be a part of the online discussion. As I mentioned earlier, I was active in the early days of social media and as such I got the chance to live that life before it ever became mainstream. I have no interest in living that life again, I've discovered a more fulfilling path for myself without the online component. So, as uncomfortable as the topic of this semester is for me, I will have to push through it and make it work. Perhaps I will learn to use some new applications along the way.
